Invisible Zipper

                                 

I have never put in an invisible zipper before. It is a little daunting. You have to iron down the coils first and then sew right on the edge of the coils. I think it looks great now that it's done.

                                 

I am using a Burda pattern. I had never heard of this company before, but I liked the pattern. The directions are complete crap. They don't refer to the pieces by number and sometimes don't use the same name on the pattern as in the directions. The dress is fully lined, but there are no directions on how to sew the lining. I'm relying on all my previous experience to put this dress together! You can see how I've sewn the lining to the zipper. I hope I don't have to rip all this out in a few more steps. Somehow I'll make it work.
